11:11 am
fashion. >> that was the president, as you know, the u.s. senate, democrats control it. they passed an immigration overhaul back in june, but it has been blocked by republicans on the house side. this is a new poll by cbk news. it shows most americans support a conditional path to citizenship. but people think securing the border is a higher priority than resolving undocumented immigrants' status. also in washington today, tech firms behind the obama care website defended the parts they built for the system, but at a hearing, a heated hearing, might i add, on capitol hill today, they said the complex project as a whole needed much more testing before its launch back on the 1st of october. none was willing to say when the notorious glitches will disappear for good. so that is the tech part of the story. but as we know, a lot of politics at play here as well. republicans wanted to know who
11:12 am
is to blame for the failure within the obama administration. as for the democrats, they expressed amusement atropines' concerns about a website that drives a program they have time and time again tried to destroy. here's a bit of that. >> $500 million later, we find the american public have been dumped with the ultimate cash for clunkers. except they had to pay the cash and still got the clunker. >> the affordable care act is an enormous success. with one obvious exception. it has a poorly designed website. >> this is more than a website problem. and frankly, the website should have been the easy part. i'm also concerned about what happens next. will enrollment glitches become i'm brooke baldwin live here in provider payment glitches? boston for tonight's tribute to will patients show up at their some of the marathon bombing doctor's office orhospital to be survivors. told maybe they aren't covered we're just hours away here from or even in the system? >> thank you, mr. chairman. game two, in the thick of

11:48 am
seventh inning stretch for an behaviorist who pushes back on the entire premise of the film incredibly special ceremony. because he says, look, these i'm brooke baldwin live in attacks are relative. boston at fenway park. attacks don't happen in the wild thank you for being with me. "the lead" with jake tapper because there aren't people in starts right now. the wild. here he was. >> killer whales are the top i hereby call this monkey predator in the wild. they are an aggressive animal court to order. the honorable congressman that kills sharks, kills seals, bubbles has the floor. i'm jake tapper. and kills other animals. this is "the lead." the national lead. there are not a lot of human don't blame us for the botched attacks in the wild because obama care websites. people don't interact with them we're just the people who in the wild. designed them. i also think the number of accidents that have occurred in contractors head to capitol hill zoos and aquariums is really for a hearing that one democrat loudly denounced as a quote, minimal. the film kind of portrays this monkey court. happens all the time. the world lead. pirates attack a ship off the >> how do you, howard, how do coast of nigeria and now you respond to that? officials believe they are holding two americans hostage. how will the u.s. respond? >> well, for one thing, there are a lot more aggressive also in world news, is he a incidents than are reported, pencil pusher or pushing even than osha was able to americanso uncover for the hearings, but really those are just a symptom, one of many symptoms of the complete incompatibility of a c
11:49 am
orcas to live in captivity. their longevity it shortened to about ten years on average, whether born or captures in captivity. so that and all of the other evidence, the ulcers, the deaths from infections, the deaths by mosquito bites. there's so many ways of understanding that they just cannot thrive. they cannot live well or live long in captivity. >> we should mention that sea world declined cnn's request to be interviewed on camera, but we did get a statement, so let me read that statement to you. if i can. here we go. blackfish is billed as a documentary but instead of a fair and balanced treatment of a complex subject, the film is inaccurate and misleading and regrettably exploits a tragedy that remains a source of deep pain for dawn brancho's family,
11:50 am
friends, and colleagues. it goes on. perhaps most important, the film fails to mention sea world's commitment to the safety of its team members and guests and to the care and welfare of the animals as demonstrated by the company's continual refinement and improvement to the killer whale facilities, equipment, and procedures, both before and after the death of dawn brancheau. that is from sea world. howard, thank you for joining me here, and once again, tonight, you can see what this controversy is all about. watch it. set the dv. . it is a cnn premiere of the film "blackfish" tonight, 9:00 eastern, only here on cn nrk. coming up, matthew cordle of ohio finally got the justice he was seeking, not for something done to him, but for what he did to the family of 61-year-old vince vincent kcanzani, a victim of cordle's drunk driving. in september, he confessed on youtube, he killed canzani, just as we reported, sentenced to
11:51 am
6 1/2 years, cordle spoke today from prison with cnn's chris cuomo. >> there is really no fair sentence when it comes to the loss of life. it's just time, and time won't bring back the victim, unfortunately. so, you know, i'm just glad that the family can have some measure of closure, and i hope that they find peace throughout this. drinking is definitely something i have been struggling with my whole life, since i was young. i always drank heavily. and drank often. i think the bad statistic is that first-time dui offenders drink and drive 80 times before they get caught, and that is definitely a category i fall under. it's just, you know, i can't believe i didn't see something like this coming. that was one of the biggest emotions i had throughout this, is frustration with myself. we decided to make the video and put it on social media because young drivers are the ones who mostly drink and drive, and
11:52 am
young people are also the ones who mostly use social media, so we thought that was the best platform to raise awareness. i'm not sure exactly what i'm going to do yet because i have never been to prison. i don't know exactly all the programs and everything offered there, but i'm going to take advantage of every educational program i can, every recreational program i can, and every work program i can. as i said, to walk out of prison a better man than the day i walked in. as far as after that, only time will tell. >> matthew cordle speaking on "new day." the victim's daughter talked to cordle sentencing, saying her father got a, quote, death sentence, and matthew cordle will have his life back, but her dad will, quote, never come back. coming up. we're here in a very chilly but very exciting boston, massachusetts. we're going to take you behind the scenes, a look at tonight's special ceremony at fenway park, honoring the survivors of the boston bombings. plus, james taylor joins me

11:56 am
we have been hearing a lot lately about low pay at fast food restaurants. but get this, one job's advocacy group says mcdonald's has an
11:57 am
employee hotline that helps its workers get food stamps. one woman said mcdonald's pushed her to sign up. zain asher listened and calls me with reaction from the employee and from mcdonald's. what did they say? >> the help line is called the resources hotline. a help line that mcdonald's workers can call to discuss various financial needs including how to get on public assistance. the outrage is mcdonald's wages are so low that the company even has to have a help line that their workers can call to teach them how to qualify for food stamps and medicaid. i'm going to play you a conversation between a mcdonald's worker and a help line representative. the worker is calling, asking about medical help. take a listen to the conversation. >> what about the doctor? >> did you try to get on medicaid? medicaid is a federal program. it is health coverage for low-income or no-income adults. and children. >> so by telling their workers
11:58 am
how to qualify for food stamps and medicaid, mcdonald's is essentially asking taxpayers to supplement their low wages. the worker you heard, her name is nancy. she makes $8.25. she's wr worked for mcdonald's for ten years and never had a raise once. there was a report that showed low wages in the fast food sector in particular costs taxpayers roughly around $7 billionane year in public assistance. we reached out to mcdonald's for comment and asked about their low wages, and they said, i'm quoting, their jobs range from minimum wage at the salary positions and we offer everyone the same opportunity for advancement. they're not buying that. they said mcdonald's can and should offer their employees higher wages. >> zain asher, thank you. fans in these seats have had a love affair with the boston red sox for more than 100 years, but this year was different.
11:59 am
watching their beloved hometown team go from last to first has really helped this city heal. this is the iconic green monster, but this here is no ordinary scoreboard. and today, we have this rare opportunity to go inside. this is the oldest manually operated scoreboard still active in the game. and it goes all the way back to 1914. after the bombing, the sox were on the road in cleveland, and they decided together that in that dugout, they wanted to hang this away jersey as a way to show solidarity for the events back home. you can see it's got the boston area code, 617, showing this team, too, is boston strong. >> and here we are, brooke baldwin. top of the second hour. a special day. i see blue sky, finally. we're just outside of fenway park. you can see the activity. things are -- the hustle and bustle is happening here at van
12:00 pm
ness and yawkey way, but time wise, think about where the city has come because we're six months now after that terrorist attack on boylston street. tonight, the city of boston is in the spotlight again. but this time, it's quite different because the red sox are on the big stage, just beyond those green walls here, playing in game two of the world series. so a couple hours from now, this city of boston will remember and will celebrate life, so live during the show, we'll talk to and you'll hear from several of the survivors from the bombing. you'll hear from rescuers and also i tell you i'm a huge fan of this guy, the second interview in a couple months. so special, james taylor will be joining me right here outside of fenway park, and he has a special surprise for fans of his tonight. do not miss that. but first this. this is cnn breaking news. breaking news here as we are following that shooting near a navy base in tennessee. cnn pentagon correspondent
12:01 pm
barbara starr has those new details. barbara, what do you know? what happened? >> well, good afternoon, brooke. we've now been told that the lockdown at the navy base in millington, tennessee, has been lifted. there was a shooting a short time ago, just outside the base. still on favy property, but outside the base. what we're told by u.s. military officials is a national guardsmen got into a fight with two other guardsmen, shot one in the leg, one in the foot. those two wounded people now being treated. said not to be life-threatening injuries and the shooter is in custody. that's the word we're getting. the millington police, navy police, and -- pardon me, authorities responding to all of this, but it looks at this point like it's wrapped up. brooke. >> okay, barbara, thank you very much. the pentagon. and couple school shootings, school incidents this week. the first earlier on. we're now hearing today, the first time, from this
12:02 pm
12-year-old boy, 12, who survived monday's shooting at that middle school in sparks, nevada. police say one of his classmates, also 12, shot and killed a teacher before turning the gun on himself with a ha handgun he took from his parbtsz. so two students, including the one you are about to hear from, were wounded. joining me now from nevada is stephanie elam. and stephanie, just hearing from this youngster, it is heartbreaking. >> it's very heartbreaking to hear, and it's also just so sad to hear that mason, the boy that you're about to hear from, really did think that the shooter was one of his friends. he said that they were friendly, that they had a class together as well. same thing with the other boy that was shot. but what is striking is to hear how he doesn't think that he was his friend now that he shot him. take a listen to what he talked about. >> where were you when everything started? >> i was by south hall.
12:03 pm
>> what did you hear? >> a few gunshots. i thought they were out in the distance. >> oh, really, you thought they were far away? what did you do? >> i was -- i really didn't do anything. i was confused why everybody was running. >> and then what -- when did you encounter your classmate with the gun? how soon after you heard the first couple shots? >> i wanted to try to help mr. landsberry, and i went to go grab my backpack, then i didn't grab it because i didn't really care about it. and so then i was -- the closest building was in south hall, and i was trying, and that's where i was shot. >> did you see him? >> yeah. >> did you come face-to-face with him? did he say anything to you?
12:04 pm
he just shot you. how far away from you was he? >> about 10, 20 feet. >> and did you realize right away you had been shot? did you know? you knew it. >> yeah, there was a very sharp pain in my stomach. >> did you fall? >> no. >> you managed to stay standing? so what did you do? >> i -- after i was shot, i went to try to go back in the building, and then i ran away from him. and there was another entrance, the end of south hall, and i tried to go in it, but it was locked so i went and there was a secret security that helped me. told me to lay down and put pressure on my wound. >> so where exactly, if you can put your hand kind of over it, where exactly did you get shot? >> it went in like this, went
12:05 pm
through my tissue, and kind of tried to exit out, but then it went down and shot behind here. >> wow. >> it went in, started to exit again, and then re-entered and came out the left -- excuse me, the right-hand back side. yeah. >> so it managed to miss -- because i was trying to figure out if you got hit, if it was around your spine, because you're walking. it went this way. >> it's quite a miracle, actually. i mean, looking at the wounds and everything, it seems that the bullet traveled around him and didn't go through him. i don't know how that happened. >> so during this whole process, you know, though, that mr mr. landsberry was down. was he one of your teachers? >> no, he was just a really good friend of mine. because i used to go visit him every time at lunch and before school. >> why did you like him so much? >> because he was funny, and
12:06 pm
friendly. and fun to hang around. i was looking around the school, and likewise, everybody running, and nothing. and then, oh, wow. then i saw mr. landsberry got shot. he was laying on the ground. he wasn't twitching or anything. he had no muscle spasms or he wasn't twitching or moving. so my friend jj got on the phone and called 911. and the sparks police and sparks middle school, and he's like, we need the police. mr. landsberry, one of our teachers, is unconscious on the basketball court at sparks middle school. we need police down here fast. i want people to learn from what
12:07 pm
i've been through is to, if you ever shot a gun and you accidentally killed somebody, you would have made a very big mistake from that. and i used to treat guns not poorly but a little poorly. because i thought they were a toy. but when i got shot, i learned that they're not just a toy. they're a weapon. and it could damage somebody very bad. so i want everybody in the world to know that war and battles and anything dealing with weapons and guns and knives, they're all weapons and they can kill you, very easily if you hit the right spot. i'm lucky to be alive, and the bullet didn't go through me if it did, i would have been
12:08 pm
dead, but it just went around me. so i'm very lucky to be alive. >> just utterly heartbreaking to hear mason talk about that and how different everything could have been if the bullet had traveled a different way through his body. and one other thing that we did speak about with his mother is just asking her how she felt about the parents of the shooter. and she says that she feels sorry for them because she knows they're grieving as well. she has no anger. they're dealing with the loss of their child. brooke. >> tough for all the parents there in sparks, nevada. i'm just curious, with this recent, you know, shooting incident in sparks, what did the mother -- did you ask her about, you know, guns in schools or renewed conversation about arming teachers? what was her stance on guns in general? >> well, it was interesting because she was really happy with how quickly the school
12:09 pm
locked itself down. remember, this all happened outside on the campus, but not inside the buildings. and the teachers and the students and the staff all came and locked the doors and made sure that the shooter did not get in. police told us that they do have evidence he tried to get in the building. she also went on to say as far as guns are concerned, she owns a gun, but she also owns a safe as well. it's not about not owning guns in her mind. what it's about is proper gun safety and making sure that these guns do not end up in the hands of children so that nothing like this can ever happen again, brooke. stephanie elam, thank you so much, in reno, nevada, our hearts go out to all o f thosemilies theren sparks. and the detail tz, they're sickening, after allegedly beating his teacher and slashing her with a box cutter, sources tell cnn that 14-year-old philip chism stuffed 24-year-old colleen ritzer's body into a recycling bin, rolled it out of this school in danvers, massachusetts, not too far from
12:10 pm
where i'm standing in boston, and dumped it in the woods behind the building. and then what did he do? according to a source familiar with this investigation, this young man, this 14-year-old, went to a wendy's restaurant. according to some reports, he also went to a movie theater in the hours after this alleged killing of this teacher. he was found in a neighboring town. comingup, he iseyalmaryqla teenage party has him answering pretty tough questions today. we will show you what caused this controversy and tell you his response next.
